Re: I've got a High Idle



im not sure if your is the same but one day my car started hissing and
cutting out and i looked under the hood and i was missing a screw to plug
the needle valve on the back side of the FI manifold it takes a certain
screw, find one at a junk yard, but mine was idiling at 200 rpm and cutting
out so i covered it with duct tape until i could go find a screw for it and
duriing the time the tape was on it it idled between 2100 and 3000, but i
put the screw in and it was all fixed.
Hopefully that helps a little bit.
